4-Methylanilinium trichloroacetate

The asymmetric unit of the title molecular salt, C 7 H 10 N + ·C 2 Cl 3 O 2 − , consists of two cations and two anions. In the crystal, N—H...O hydrogen bonds link the components into [100] chains incorporating R 2 3 (10) loops and weak π–π stacking [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.865 (2) Å] is also observed.
